People will defend why they have preferences or why they are bashing a company or product but it is only a company at the end of the day. Gaming has become an example of "The things you own ends up owning you."

Having preferences is ok of course. The problem is when people's preferences goes beyond just a hobby but a way of letting something define them on who they are.

Great saying, I have to edmit, I was sort of a hardcore Nintendo fan once, and look what it did to me. I bought a Wii U around launch and here I am, about 9 months in and I still have nothing to play on my Wii U. I had so much faith in Nintendo, my thoughts were clouded. I'm starting to feel like an idiot buying this thing too early, while Sony and Microsoft show off some impressive hardware and software. (Still not a fan of having to pay to play online or the kinect) but at least Xbox and Sony are trying to make gaming better for first and third parties. Not sure what Nintendo doing. (I love the 3DS btw)

I think with time the WiiU will turn out to be a good product.  I also bought the WiiU at launch and have barely touched it but Im really looking forward to games like Smash Bros and Project X.  Even if the WiiU doesnt sell well i think i will still enjoy it personally.
